in my trials I found an interesting called malwarebytes (free version)
at http://www.malwarebytes.org/
I tested it and ran it on 7 computers (xp and vista).
Works fine. It seems to get rid of windowsxp2009 and also uses very little
resources.
I have it as a backup to Superantispyware Pro (you can never have enough
antispyware programs)
It does manual updates and you run it manually.
I joined their forum to see what it was all about before I downloaded and
installed it
again, as a backup program it looks pretty good.

It ain't new but it's the best program in its category currently available
:)

I installed and ran it last week, and I was pretty impressed.
However, it found a false positive (in a program that I have used for
more than 10 years), and there is a link to report false positives. But
when it shows the website, there is no place to report false positives.

Go to:
'More Tools' tab and click 'Report False Positive'

Good luck :)
 
I've been using it since August or so in all the PC's that I maintain for my
family and friends. It found stuff on my sister's machine that none of the
others -- WD, SAS, Spybot S&D -- did and cleaned it.
